Powerful deity Isla Develler is cursed and goes to the other side of the world for a solution, where she encounters more trouble than she imagined, among them a human who ignites her darkest desires and a mischievous god who seems to enjoy her struggles. ***** Growing up in a powerful family of Opulents, beings with blood of both the gods and angels, Isla is the best candidate to be the next Opulent Empress. But being an Opulent means getting a Curse. Isla just got hers and it's a bad one. Before her ambitious cousin finds out and ruin her chance to the throne, Isla is forced to go to the other side of the world, live in a dilapidated colonial house in the middle of a mystical forest that hides many secrets, and lead the incompetent Department of Lost Things where the temporary solution to her Curse is kept. Things get a little tricky for Isla when she encounters a human teenage girl who lost her memories. But Jade is just one trouble Isla will face in East Isles: Across the forest, in a human village, lives Lucas, a powerless but famous human jazz singer with a flock of devout fangirls, and he fills Isla's nights with dark desires that may lead to her ruin. And within the forest is Avi, a mischievous and untrustworthy god, who seems to enjoy watching it. As Isla and the peculiar team of the Department of Lost Things reluctantly help Jade find her family, while working on a case for a major goddess with a major attitude, they struggle with everything human and powerless, and other things more sinister that lives very close to home.

30 parts Complete Mature
The world is dying. Heaven and Hell have broken and collapsed, creating a post-apocalyptic landscape that is part purgatory, part platonic world of ideas, blighted by the horrors of the human mind. The sun lies dormant in the east, atop God's tower, while the west is plunged into darkness and haunted by all that lives there. There is no day and night cycle, nothing grows, nothing dies, nothing changes, unless magic is involved. Angels hunt creatures for their blood, to feed it to God so he can finish gestating. Demons kill and destroy aimlessly, their origins inexplicable and unknown. Stranger beings wander the ruins of what's left of the world. Humans need not eat or sleep, caught in a state between life and death. They cannot die or be born naturally, but they can be killed and they can be made. The few that survived with their sanity somewhat intact have locked themselves into warded cities, but their protections are feeble and often ineffective. The Order that united them is long gone, broken into factions known only by the sins for which they have fallen. The Houses that protected them are crumbling, falling into ruin as their members were culled down by angels and demons, as well as their own mad quest to save the world; the Pilgrimage, a vain attempt to steal into Eden and murder God himself. Soon, only the Scions will remain. Those that were left not due to merit, but because they were the last choice for being heroes. Those whose memories and minds are as damaged and eaten through as their world. Those who agreed to take on the mysterious Archons within their bodies and, through that contract, had ancient relics and rituals passed down to them. They converge onto a long forgotten neutral ground, trying to save themselves. A heroic journey through a nightmarish wonderland. A pilgrimage to God's tower, to make the world whole again. To cleanse the world of the horrors infecting it. To kill the God who will doom them all with his birth.
